Carroll and Central Noble will lead the area contingent with four wrestlers apiece competing in the high school state finals this Friday and Saturday in Indianapolis.

New Haven’s Jaxson Savieo and Jay County’s Gaven Hare and Mason Winner will try to use semistate championships to propel them to even greater heights.

Here is a look at the Fort Wayne-area wrestlers scheduled to compete at the state finals at Bankers Life Fieldhouse, Indianapolis. First round starts at 6 p.m. Friday, with quarterfinals and semifinals beginning at 9:30 a.m. Saturday, consolations matches at 5 p.m. Saturday and finals at 7:30 p.m. Saturday:
